    This means that you can run mainline kernel in console with some parts of hardware working on S905, S905X and S912. Nothing useful for a media center OS.

    LE team is in touch with the team responsible for mainlining Amlogic support, I assure you that when it's possible to run fully-functional Kodi on Amlogic driven by mainline kernel, LE will be one of the first to include it.

    That said we do not have Linux Mali libraries for S912. This means LE for S912 is not possible. Period.

    The same thing applies to any device containing chips that shares the same GPU as S912 like Amlogic S966,Amlogic T966,Amlogic T968 Exynos 7570, Exynos 7650,Exynos 7870,Exynos 7880, Kirin 650, Realtek RTD1295 etc right?

    Just exposing my ignorance here thus have to ask what's the difference between the android kernel driver for mali t830 like the one here [1] for Exynos 7870 is that stuff not usable due to licensing issues and between chipsets due to chipset makers adding their own "special" gpu sauce?
